Default Spyware installs during Uninstallation

I just want to take the opportunity to point out that I am annoyed by the fact that Limewire during a standard uninstall attempted to install Spyware components on my system. Such program behavior is unacceptable and I cannot help but feeling that the concept of uninstalling and its intended results are not known to those responsible for that particular uninstall feature.

Had it not been for Lavasoft's Ad-watch, Limewire's good-bye gift might have successfully been planted without my knowledge. Since Limewire seems to perceive such behavior to be good computing practice, I consider Limewire a parasite that is not worth considering for a Gnutella network client solution.
